What it is

The First International Meeting on Social and Solidary Economy, that will be held on the 27th, 28th, 29th November in Zaragoza, is part of the project for the Promotion of Social Economy Initiatives, developed by Aragón REAS in collaboration with Zaragoza City Council.

The aim of this project is to promote the creation of consortia and networks of a regional, national and European nature for social cohesion. It also seeks to contribute to the generation and the sustainment of the social and economic fabric – deepening democracy, social innovation and local development.

Social and Solidary Economy is often pursued on local and regional dynamics. Many of the most innovative organizations are small and operate locally. To spread the word about these experiences and to strengthen intercooperation within the supraterritorial project we are organising this international meeting.
